1. Put your best player in goal. 2. Limit your best players playing time. ( SYA Soccer rule is you must play everyone 75 % before someone else plays 100% of the game.

3. Play for possession only and pass the ball around rather than going straight to goal. Have a rule that states you must pass 5 passes before you goal to goal. 4. Move players around in different postions.

5. Have creative ways to score that are challenging, such as you must score from a cross.

We want to play to win( score more goals than the other team), but we want to minimize games that are too lopsided.
